Synopsis

"A thinking person's horror picture that dares to be as cerebral as it is visceral." – Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

Sutter Cane (Jürgen Prochnow, Dune, The Seventh Sign) is the best-selling author whose newest novel is literally driving readers insane. When he inexplicably vanishes, his publisher (Charlton Heston, Soylent Green, Planet Of The Apes) sends special investigator John Trent (Sam Neill, Daybreakers, Dead Calm) to track him down. Drawn to a town that exists only in Cane's books, Trent crosses the barrier between fact and fiction and enters a terrifying world from which there is no escape.

Inspired by the tales of H.P. Lovecraft, this shocking story is, in the words of its acclaimed director, "horror beyond description!"

Why We Love It

“A fitting conclusion to Carpenter's ‘Apocalypse Trilogy,’ In the Mouth of Madness is a thinking person's horror film that requires one's upmost concentration. It contains some of the most complex editing that Carpenter's done in his long career. For those who own New Line's Blu-ray of the film, Shout! Factory's Collector's Edition is a substantial upgrade that is worth making the double dip. The transfer easily matches if not eclipses its predecessor and the thunderous DTS-HD MA 5.1 sounds fabulous. The new interviews and featurettes are very good if not excellent…a MUST OWN release.” – Dr. Stephen Larson, Blu-ray.com

“Scream Factory delivers a Blu-ray that’ll leave the fans very happy with some improved video as well as a nice load of brand new extras.” – Brandon Peters, Why So Blu

“It's really great fun, and this release of In the Mouth of Madness has my highest recommendation.” – Michele "Izzy" Galgana, Screen Anarchy

“The new transfer produces the best-looking image this movie has seen thus far and the great audio track is still intact from the previous version. There are a wealth of new extras, interviews, and even a brand new commentary track from John Carpenter. For horror fans, this is a Must Own!” – Bryan Kluger, High-Def Digest

“In the Mouth of Madness is one of the truly forgotten great Carpenter entries. This loaded Collector’s Edition should solve that problem with Carpenter and non-Carpenter fans alike. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!” – A.W. Kautzer, The Movie Isle
